The woman, 51, was arrested at a neighbouring unit and was taken to Waverley police station.

She has been charged with special aggravated break and enter and commit serious indictable offence.

The victim is in hospital in a stable condition.

Neighbours reported hearing the pair argue.

"Screaming, yelling, people arguing.. I think someone called the police. It was pretty full on. You wouldn't think about this sort of stuff in the heart of Bondi. It's summer, everyone's chilling, but it could happen anywhere," a witness, Mia told 9NEWS.
